“Lao Tzu’s Shadow”
Controlling
What We can't control
Is called grasping blindly
Thinking
That you are clever and wise
Is called
Vanity rising
Speaking
Without intent or purpose
Is called foolish banter
Letting Go
And flowing with the WAY
Is called awareness blooming.

Mysterious TAO

Everything in nature is fleeting
Leaves turn color and fall away
Trees grow old and some decay
Caterpillars undergo a glorious metamorphosis
Into butterflies….
While the mountain winds
And ocean tides
They come and go

Yet,
Beneath its seeming impermanence
The Earth moves in cycles
Guided by a divine hand
Whose intentions are
Pure
Wise
And knowing

From the sunrise and sunset
To the cycles of the seasons
The TAO gives breath to
Both the seen and unseen
In the wild.
